However, Ju Zi quickly concealed her expression and looked at Huo Yuhao.
She thought Huo Yuhao would be shocked by her sudden change, but to her surprise, he remained calm.
Ju Zi was puzzled.
"Yuhao…don't you have anything to say?"
Huo Yuhao knew perfectly well what was going on in response to Ju Zi's question.
Most people would avoid someone determined to start a war.
But for Huo Yuhao, it didn't matter.
The destruction of Xingluo was exactly what Huo Yuhao wanted to see.
Ju Zi turned back and smiled slightly at him. Huo Yuhao's long silence made Ju Zi think that his opinion of her had changed.
"Does that make you uncomfortable? I know you're from the Xingluo Empire…"
"Senior Ju Zi, it's not like that."
"Although Xingluo is my hometown, I'm an orphan. Now, for me, the whole world is my home."
"Not only that, but I think destroying Xingluo, just hearing about it makes one's blood boil, doesn't it?"
Huo Yuhao's support shocked Ju Zi.
The atmosphere inside the all-terrain detection soul tool was somewhat silent.
Clearly, Ju Zi hadn't expected Huo Yuhao's answer.
As the massive sphere continued its rotation, Ju Zi closed her eyes, overwhelmed by Huo Yuhao's words.
It seemed to be the first time she had received such affirmation.
The feeling of unconditional support stirred a torrent of emotions within her.
Huo Yuhao sat there, quietly watching her, without disturbing her.
After a long while, Ju Zi finally opened her eyes.
"Yuhao, thank you."
"Originally, I had no attachment to this world whatsoever; my heart was filled only with revenge."
"Do you know?"
"I still clearly remember the despair in my mother's eyes when I learned of my father's death, and my own despair. At that moment, the whole world seemed to turn black and white."
"I'm telling you all this today because I want to tell you that I now have a sliver of hope for life."
As she spoke, Ju Zi occasionally stole glances at Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao gave Ju Zi a deep look, then smiled.
"Okay, keep going!"
...
As Ju Zi poured out her heart, the metal ball had already begun its ascent up a branch of the Jingyang Mountains. This is where the eight mechanical legs came in handy.
The bumpy ride continued, but the speed didn't decrease much. Under Ju Zi's control, the metal ball continued forward, with six legs meaning there were at least three points of support at any given time.
The material of those six metal legs was also quite tough, easily embedding itself into soil and even rock.
In no time, they had climbed a small hill.
During this time, Huo Yuhao was primarily responsible for channeling soul power, as Ju Zi's soul power had been nearly depleted not long ago.
Having sorted out her thoughts and emotions, Ju Zi began to work seriously.
She took out paper and pen, observing her surroundings and carefully recording her observations, clearly documenting the status of this all-terrain detection soul tool.
"Yuhao, if you feel tired, just say so, and we'll take a break."
Although focused on her work, Ju Zi hadn't forgotten Huo Yuhao.
However, controlling such a soul tool was far too easy for Huo Yuhao.
He simply unleashed a continuous stream of soul power, propelling the massive device forward.
Even now, Huo Yuhao's expression remained calm.
After traversing another hillside, Ju Zi vacated the main control position.
"Yuhao, you try controlling it!"
Huo Yuhao immediately sat down after Ju Zi gave up her seat, listening to her explain how to operate the soul tool.
Sitting in the main control position, the feeling was immediately different.
The window in front, though small, was a special device that allowed him to see almost a 180-degree panoramic view.
There were four control levers in front of him; besides the one used to input soul power, the other three were for forward, backward, and jump, respectively.
It seemed very simple to operate.
However, once Huo Yuhao actually began to control it, he discovered some problems, namely coordination.
To control this all-terrain detection soul tool well, he first needed to understand the operating rules of its six mechanical legs.
Only in this way can one better grasp the timing of changing direction and the speed of moving forward and backward.
An ordinary person might need some time to adapt, but Huo Yuhao, due to his innate advantage in mental detection, only needed about ten minutes to get used to it.
He was already able to control this peculiar and legendary soul tool quite skillfully.
Pushing the forward control lever into place, and inputting soul power into the direction control lever, Huo Yuhao excitedly said,
"Hehehe~"
"The old driver is about to start the car~"
Under his control, the all-terrain detection soul tool began to move, initially at a slow speed.
However, after some minor adjustments by Huo Yuhao, the speed of the all-terrain detection soul tool was gradually brought to its full potential.
Under Huo Yuhao's control, the entire all-terrain detection soul tool seemed to come alive, constantly adjusting its direction and charging forward.
Its speed was so fast that it was as if walking on flat ground, its inherent characteristics being fully utilized.
Just as Huo Yuhao was increasingly experiencing the wonders of this soul tool, suddenly, a warning signal appeared in his mental detection.
The all-terrain detection soul tool abruptly stopped, its six mechanical legs crouching down. Huo Yuhao then scanned a direction with his mental probe.
A wolf-shaped soul beast, about two meters long, suddenly emerged.
Its eyes warily fixed on the all-terrain detection soul tool, emitting a low growl, as if in a show of defiance.
"A silver wolf, a rare soul beast! Judging by its size, it should have around three thousand years of cultivation. Yuhao, be careful,"
came Ju Zi's voice from behind Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao knew very well what a silver wolf was; it was a unique soul beast of the Moon Empire.
It possessed chaotic attributes, but its mental power was exceptionally high, and it had an affinity for various elements. Furthermore, its long-term consumption of mithril enhanced its affinity for various elements, allowing it to unleash multiple elemental attacks.
"Careful!"
Even as they spoke, the silver wolf launched its attack.
It was clearly annoyed by the rampaging metal sphere in front of it. Its silver fur suddenly shone brightly, and it spat out a silver ball of light from its mouth.
The silver ball of light made no sound in the air, but just as it was about to reach the all-terrain detection soul tool, the silver light suddenly changed, transforming into a fireball a full meter in diameter, which slammed into it.
